detailed article on good sources, accepted AGF. Article: please clean up the order of refs. Infobox: is he notable as a night watchman? - I would drop "occupation". Hook: the average reader might want to know what High Commissioner. What do you think of this?
ALT1: ... that during the Great Syrian Revolt, rebel commander Hasan al-Kharrat (pictured) led the capture of the Azm Palace, aiming for Maurice Sarrail, the High Commissioner of the French Mandate? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:36, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
I like ALT1, let's use it instead. I addressed your concerns (organizing the refs, explaining the role of High-Commissioner) and added a specific mention of the rebels' intent to capture Sarrail himself. --Al Ameer son (talk) 17:19, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
thank you --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:44, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
